Program Plan Intro
Decision structure:
Sequence structure cannot handle all types of tasks. These can be achieved using the decision structure. Example: “if” statement.
“if” statement:
The “if” statement is used to create a decision structure; it allows more than one execution path for
Indentation in the “if” statement:
While using the “if” statement, the following indentations should be followed:
- • The block of statements that follow the “if” statement should be indented.
- • The Python interpreter uses this to check where the block begins and ends.
Algorithm to replace character‘t’ with its upper case version is as follows:
- • Iterate through the string using the “for” loop.
- • Using the “if” statement, check whether character is‘t’.
- • If character is “t”, convert to upper case.
- • Create a new string with the upper case “t” character using the concatenation operation.
- • Display a new string.

This string method returns a copy of a string with all the alphabetic letters converted to uppercase.a. uppercase()b. case_upper()c. upper()d. to_upperCase()
An string should taken from user and check if it contains uppercase charcters or not
if yes print those
else print no such element
Write code that concatenates the character strings in str1 and str2, separated by a space, and assigns the result to a variable named joined. Assume that both string variables have been initialized.

Table 10-8 from the textbook shows part of the code. Write a program that asks the user to enter a string, and then converts that string to Morse code. Note that Morse code represents both upper and lower case letters so that both 'A' and 'a' will be converted to ".-". Input Validation.None. Instructor Notes: Note: You can use the Morse table in the book or this site (space isn't listed, but it is just mapped to a space). You will most certainly need to create two parallel arrays to map the characters to the Morse code strings.arrow_forward
- Word Separator Write a program that accepts as input a sentence in which all of the words are run together but the first character of each word is uppercase. Convert the sentence to a string in which the words are separated by spaces and only the first word starts with an uppercase letter.
